Extended Parts Warranty on Mr. Slim Now Available

Suwanee, Ga. - Mitsubishi Electric HVAC, Suwanee, Ga., has extended the parts warranty on Mr. Slim® to two years, doubling the current standard one-year parts warranty. This new benefit will effect installations performed by one of Mitsubishi Electric's Diamond Dealers after June 13, 2005, according to William Rau, senior vice president and general manager of Mitsubishi Electric HVAC.

"Our aim in offering this new incentive is to provide our Diamond Dealers with another tool to sell Mr. Slim products. At the same time, the end-user will benefit from excellent service and the peace of mind provided by the extended warranty," says Rau.

Diamond Dealers are independent dealers that have reached the highest level of accreditation from Mitsubishi Electric HVAC as part of the Diamond Alliance program, a collection of training-based achievement programs designed to bind Mitsubishi Electric, distributors, contractors, and design engineering firms together. All of the Diamond Dealers have successfully completed factory training in the areas of applications, sales and service for the Mr. Slim products and have invested their time to obtain personalized, hands-on training at one of Mitsubishi Electric's Training Centers. The goal of the training is to provide consumers and end-users with the most professional quality installation and maintenance for Mitsubishi Electric's products.

"Hopefully the introduction of this benefit will entice more dealers to undergo the extensive training process that Mitsubishi puts all of its Diamond Dealers through, giving consumers the ultimate advantage of having dealers who are extremely well-informed on the application and installation of all Mitsubishi products," notes Rau.
